Delibes, Leo (1836-1891)

Description:

This is a masterpiece that conveys the charm of "Lakmé," Nathalie Dessay's signature role, with her beautiful voice, perfect technique, and bewitching singing. Dessay, who seems to have been born to perform Lakmé, is employed here, and her co-stars, including Nicaranta van Damme, who has a strong presence, leave no stone unturned. Plasson's conducting is also brilliant, and this is a definitive masterpiece of this opera that has not been well recorded. In order to offer the music to as many listeners as possible at a low price, the booklet contains only a brief synopsis (in Latin only) and does not include lyrics or a bilingual translation.
